Guvava or Perakka

Also known as the Poor mans apple, Guava is rich in Vit C and fibres. Good for digestion and energy. I eat fresh Perakka every morning these days. Fresh green ones just about to ripe are more tasty. The yellow ripened ones are usually coming with worms inside.
This Guava tree was a surprise as it started growing from underneath our neighbors boundary wall. We just allowed it to grow and it started yielding lot of guavas ...!! Our neighbour has a big tree in their compound and probably the seeds got dropped by the feeding birds....
